Company mission
Clio's mission is to build cloud-based and client-centred technology that will transform the legal experience for all.
Role
Who you are
- Excellent communication skills, both synchronously and asynchronously
- Experience as a product designer. SaaS experience is a bonus
- Personal or professional knowledge about the financial services and/or fintech industry. If you know what ‘rails’ do and what a general ledger is, we want to talk to you!
- A portfolio showing UX problem solving and thoughtful, user-centered UI design
- Exceptional UI design skills with a strong understanding of how to both use and contribute to design systems
- Experience with modern design tools (Figma) and the willingness to adopt new tools as needed
- Ability to separate noise from signal in usability testing and be able to quickly iterate on UI concepts and drive alignment on direction forward
- A design degree or relevant experience with platform and/or application design
- Strategies to quickly ramp up on new domains specifically in legal
- Humility plus strong opinions that are loosely held
What the job involves
- We are currently seeking a new Senior Product Designer to join our Product Design team on a 12 month contract (mat leave coverage) to work within the Financial Performance portfolio
- This portfolio is focused on how our customers bill for their work, collect on invoices, reconcile their books and report on and grow their firm’s financial health
- Design plays an integral role at Clio, making up one of the three pillars of our Research and Development organization alongside Product Management and Engineering
- Product designers directly engage in researching the behaviours and needs of our users
- They act as champions of user experience as we work to transform the way lawyers and their staff provide services to their clients
- If you’re focused on shipping value to customers with an opportunity to revolutionize an industry, you’ve found your next team
- Collaborate with designers to build experiences that simplify the complexity of financial workflows
- Work as part of a cross functional unit (triad), alongside product management and engineering
- Join a diversely skilled design team using modern design tools
- Advocate for our customers by knowing them and their needs inside out
- Concept, prototype, design and present solutions that solve both business and user problems and deliver measurable outcomes
- Coach and mentor designers on a range of design practices
- Create sketches, flow diagrams, wireframes, and mockups of features serving different user segments
- Conduct user interviews, usability testing, and analysis
- Use and leverage metrics to drive product design and measure product success
Our take
Modern law firms increasingly manage their work digitally but the lack of a specialised remote solution means that workflows have become fragmented. This leads to legal practice managers having to juggle multiple software solutions across various devices.
Clio provides a legal practice management platform designed for law firms, allowing users to manage billing for legal aid cases, access and manage documents and store files across multiple devices. Whilst other startups are operating in this niche, Clio has uniquely focussed on synchronisation across remote devices and on a wide range of integrations, allowing the user to access information from other industry standard software such as Xero and Klyant from within a single interface.
Clio has raised a large amount of investment capital, most recently in a 2021 Series E round which saw the company attain unicorn status with a valuation exceeding $1 billion. This funding is being used to accelerate its product development, hire additional talent, and for expansion into new markets with a focus on the EMEA region, particularly the UK and Ireland.
